Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) This is a perfectly serviceable movie -- it's a drama, it's well-acted, it's well-written. It's working, generally speaking. Aug 12, 2019 Full Review Robert Daniels 812filmreviews The emancipation Brian Banks depicts becomes narrative chains in its wake. Rated: 2/4 Aug 10, 2019 Full Review Leah Pickett Chicago Reader Hodge's resolute performance anchors the film, while the nuanced screenplay from Doug Atchison and lush visual language from cinematographer Ricardo Diaz push it several rungs above prosaic TV-movie-style fare. Aug 9, 2019 Full Review M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut Brian Banks is an effective indictment of the business of the criminal justice system when politics dictate someone eventually has to pay for the people’s investment, whether they are guilty or innocent. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 20, 2022 Full Review Charles Koplinski Reel Talk with Chuck and Pam There are also great life lessons in this film that will inspire both teens and adults. Rated: 2.5/4.0 Nov 21, 2020 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com Shadyac frames it wisely by shooting the film in non-chronological order and allowing us to become immersed in Banks as a human being. Rated: 3.0/4.0 Sep 4, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
